I known Lego my whole live now. I know it since it gave not more than some bricks and slopes - no specialiced parts like today. The first great series I remember was Classic Space. The LL918 was my first Classic Space set. Since this point I had the virus...
... In the middle of the 80s I build my last large ship for a long long time. In the age of eBay I was able to get some parts easy for my last MOC which was crashed several times and was hardly damaged.
Now I had the ability to repair it easy and had some parts for a new
beginning.
Today it´s easy to get the parts cheap and in large amounts. So the virus is back and I have started some new MOCs which I had dreamed of in my youth.
